## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

  "params": {
    "name": "create_relation",
    "arguments": {}
  }

```

## Why create_relation is rated Medium

This tool creates relationships between documents by linking them through associations. While the operation is reversible (relations can be unlinked), it modifies the document graph structure and metadata. The idempotent behavior suggests it won't cause duplicate links, but it still commits data changes.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states it 'Link[s] two documents through an existing Association' and can 'returns existing relation if one already connects', indicating it creates or modifies relational data between documents."

## Use case

AI agents use create_relation to create or update resources in Huly, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Huly environment.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Huly:
